I noticed in the online pictures, that the OEM version is stamped both "BMW" and "INA", while the OEM version is stamped "Germany", the INA version is stamped "Slovakia". Of course that is always subject to change, and maybe the OEM versions are now being made in Slovakia as well.
The one thing that I can't get a good feeling for, is whether the pulley alone can be replaced on the INA, as it can on the original BMW tensioner that the car came with. |
